    The Forwards Conundrum

    I get that. What I meant is there’s exceptions to your example as well.

    Match Thread Middlesbrough - Coventry City Match Thread - Monday 1st Jan

    Really want us to go for it and get 3 points like we did against Sunderland (where I was hoping for at least a point). Very tough match this one and the next. Bidwell back please and Palmer in place of Allen to start along with COH. MVE to start at RWB and Lati to move to midfield in place of...

    The Forwards Conundrum

    McNally had a loan spell and didn’t return, JCS had a loan spell and a relationship with Adi and didn’t return. Things change and people change their minds sometimes as well. Sure there’s examples of people staying where they are as well. Oh well.

    The Forwards Conundrum

    All I am asking for from Simms is to make a nuisance of himself to opposing players, keep them occupied/concerned, track back and try harder. I am seeing that from Wright now and not previously when he was a carbon copy of what Simms still is. Right now there’s I see zero effort from Simms...

    The Forwards Conundrum

    Whittaker instead of Simms would have been a much better and cheaper option than Simms. Strong, pacy and scores goals. Alas hindsight is 20/20 and we’re stuck with Simms who offers very little. There were one or two games like against Huddersfield where he was trying hard. Nowadays he just jogs...

    Recruitment has been shocking

    Teams target JDS for a reason. He’s so short and not very fast that you can easily lob the ball over him and have a pacy winger outrun him. Coincidentally our recent good run of form started after JDS was removed from the starting lineup and Bidwell took his place. As for the midfield, I think...

    Swansea goal

    Only if we get 3 points away to Boro will I accept this draw with Swansea. We squandered an opportunity today. I don’t think there are many other teams out there that are as charitable as we have been vs Swansea and Huddersfield. Think we’ve given up around 10 or more points from winning...

    I don't care how tired Bidwell, COH, MVE, Saka, Lati and today's version of Palmer are, but they have to play 90 mins. No rest allowed because we don't have ideal replacements. Godden, Allen, JDS need to find new teams. Sheaf makes suicidal mistakes that really get on my nerves, If we find a...

    Who’s Next?

    If there's any way to get rid of Godden, Allen and JDS we should explore that. Sheaf always has a few mistakes in him - not sure whether to keep or replace. Wright has started to turn a corner, but I'm still underwhelmed by Simms. Not sure how long to persist with him.

    Exactly what I said. Sheaf is a liability sometimes.

    When you are defending a slender lead like we were today and like against Huddersfield at home late in the game, we really need to manage the game better and shithouse than give away a goal deep into stoppage time. So naive. That's 4 points and countless more we've given away.

    Binks was decent. We missed Bidwell. JDS, Allen and Godden get a 0/10 while Sheaf gets maybe a 3/10. Played a poor pass to Allen for their first goal which was totally avoidable. Then fouls their man to give a free kick in a bad place for their second goal. Also took many poor corners although...

    No it wasn't. Sheaf has brain farts a lot. He kicked Jamal Lowe right in front of the ref. Easy call. Our wall for the free kick was poor. It had a hole in it and that's where the ball went. So dumb

    Crap sad to see Palmer leave (never thought I'd say that). JDS needs to go as well.
